state steps of iodoform reaction
Step 1: Formation of NaIO by reaction between I2 and NaOH.
Step 2: (If the sample is an alcohol) Oxidation of the alcohol by NaIO to form a carbonyl compound.

Differentiate between electrophilic substitution and nucleophilic substitution.
nucleophilic substitution: nucleophiles like OH-, CN- attracted to positively charged Carbon atom; occurs in haloalkanes
electrophilic substitution: electrophiles like NO2+ substitute Hydrogen in a benzene ring
Differentiate between electrophilic addition and nucleophilic addition.
nucleophilic addition: nucleophiles added to the positively charged Carbon in a carbonyl compound
electrophilic addition: electrophiles added across the electron rich pi bond of alkenes
